CUA setup

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I followed directions for setting up CUA exactly as listed here:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/fa/0ec43b5d091b3de10000000a114084/frameset.htm

I have only one system (IDM) with two clients (100 and 101). Client 100 is my Central System and Client 101 is the Child system.

After creating all RFC destinations and communication users with the correct authorizations, I go to SCUA to set up the CUA.

I enter IDMCLNT101 (my logical system for client 101) as a recipient and click SAVE. In the Display Logs I have errors:

Error when saving the ALE distribution in child system IDMCLNT100.

IDMCLNT100 is my central system. Is this error relevant?

I am still able to create users with SU01 on Client 101. Something must be wrong. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Hello,

Just try out the following:

1. Call transaction BD64 in the central system.

2. Distribute the ALE distribution model manually.

3. Then call transaction SCUA again. Include the child system in the system landscape again.

4. Choose Save to activate the CUA.

Let us know the results.

Hi Anand,

Thanks for the reply! When I log into the Central CUA system (Client 100) and go to BD64, I can see my CUA Model View:

- Central User Administration

- Logical system name for Client 100

- Logical system name for client 101

• USER.Clone

• UserCompany.Clone

When I try to create a new model view and add the BAPIs, it says USER.Clone already exists in model view CUA.

Any ideas?

Anyone know how to proceed?

Are you sure you need this setup even between clients of the same system? You don't need any special RFC connection between the clients of the same system, am I right? See the following documentation.

Setting Up Logical Systems

Systems of the Central User Administration (CUA) are referred to using logical system IDs. In the SAP sense, a logical system is a client. Therefore you must first set up logical system names that you then assign to the clients in the SAP systems.

It is possible that the logical system name already exists because you have already included the system in an ALE distribution. You can then ignore the procedures Define/Set Up Logical System and Assign Logical System to a Client.

This maintenance is cross-client; that is, you only perform it once for each SAP system. <b>If your logical systems are clients of the same SAP system, you only need to perform this step once.</b>

Yes, my logical systems are clients of the same system. Does it make sense that I am still able to create users in those logical systems? I thought for CUA to be working properly, you are no longer able to create users with SU01 in the client systems.

Thanks!
